The Good Old Days weren't all that good
twofoot replied to baja's topic in Historical Junior Corps Discussions
Ever have green noodles? I did for about two weeks while touring . . . . and they were delicious. -
dumb question perhaps
twofoot replied to a marching trumpet's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
As long as the keys aren't mixed within the section, it would pose no problem. -
Crown always going to be crowd favorite
twofoot replied to CrownFan4ever's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
Carolina Crown is a crowd favorite because they are freaking good as ####! -
Why is no one picking Crown '93??? They won the Div II championships with that show and is very enjoyable to listen to.

Drummers weigh in on new hornline instruments
twofoot replied to CBrogers's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
I am going to start a circuit and we will only march A horns. That way no one will argue. -
Drummers weigh in on new hornline instruments
twofoot replied to CBrogers's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
All I know is Crown and BD sure made those Bb/F horns sound like a bunch of really in tune G's this year. -
Woodwinds in Drum Corps?
twofoot replied to DeafDrummer's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
I am convinced that GH is the antichrist of the drum corps world. -
Which hornlines have been too loud?
twofoot replied to Hrothgar15's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
There is no such thing as a hornline that is too loud. '95 Scouts, however, was just loud enough and so was the very beginning of '96 BD. -
Woodwinds in Drum Corps?
twofoot replied to DeafDrummer's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
The addition of woodwinds would be an embarrassment to the activity for people like me. -
The "Music Corps Should Do" thread
twofoot replied to Lance's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
Crown should attempt "Music for Prague 1968". -
People are pansies these days. That's why the switch.

What defines a Drum and Bugle Corps?
twofoot replied to Mello Dude's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
A drum and bugle corps is an organization you join when you realize you are better than everyone else in your marching band. -
Would you really leave the activity
twofoot replied to Elmo Blatch's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
Anyone ever see the South Park episode with Indiana Jones? I think I would probably feel the same way Stan and Kyle felt. GH is to drum corps what George Lucas and Spielberg are to their own movies. -
Mellophone lick in the middle of BD '93 show. It was so cool they had to play it 3 times.

I have always liked Crown '94 baritone duets in El Salon Mexico.

Weird Fan Shouts During Performances
twofoot replied to kaseyW's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
I'm wet, BD '94, right before "When a Man Loves a Woman. I'm dripping wet, '96 BD after the opener. -
Who will be the next to win?
twofoot replied to rdtrmpt's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
CROWN. -
I said stop the sound. You don't stop the air when you reverse it, you stop the sound by reversing the flow of air.
-
We are talking about DRUM CORPS here. When you stop the sound with your tongue or with your throat or even by adjusting your embouchure, it changes the tone quality. I played bass trombone as well and I have never heard of continuing to blow air through your horn without buzzing. It seems absurd.
-
Whenever you play, you are breathing out. If you were singing, would you stop the air from flowing or put your tongue in the way to stop the note? When you are playing the instrument, doesn't that instrument become a part of you? I think of the instrument as an extension of myself and play as if I were singing by way of my instrument. And so as to be more clear, BREATHE IN TO RELEASE.
-
Blue Devils do it the best. In Crown, we had to do push ups if we leaned back.
-
Whenever not breathing out, you should breathe in.
-
It is only okay to yell, "I'm wet", or, "I'm still wet", or, "I'm dripping wet", during a drum corps show.

What are you waiting for?
twofoot replied to BlooContraGuy's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
BD having everyone's milk come in.
